I have a test rig with LXC and VirtualBox guests on it. Host is
ArchLinux 64-bit.<br>
<br>
All virtual machines and containers use the same bridged network
config.<br>
<br>
I've noticed that <br>
<br>
<ul>
<li>the containers can talk to each other, the host and anything
else on the network</li>
<li>the VB guests can talk to each other, the host and anything
else on the network</li>
<li>the containers and the VB guests cannot talk to each other</li>
<li>the containers and the VB guests can ping each other</li>
</ul>
<p>I've tried both UDP and TCP tests in both directions between
containers and VB guests. Nothing works.<br>
</p>
<p>I've done some basic testing I think data gets from source to
destination but the replies don't come back.<br>
</p>
<p>My bridge is configured like this<br>
</p>
<p><code>Description="Bridge Network (Static Host)"<br>
Connection=bridge<br>
Interface=br0<br>
BindsToInterfaces=enp6s0<br>
IP=static<br>
Address=10.0.200.1/8<br>
Gateway=10.0.0.138<br>
DNS=10.0.0.138<br>
DNSDomain=example.co.uk<br>
FwdDelay=0<br>
</code></p>
<p>And typical container config is like this:<br>
</p>
<p>lxc.network.type = veth<br>
lxc.network.flags = up<br>
lxc.network.link = br0 <br>
lxc.network.name = eth0<br>
lxc.network.mtu = 1500<br>
</p>
<p>VB guests using the bridged adapter.<br>
</p>
<p>Can anyone suggest anything that I can check or do so I can get
VBox guests and containers talking to each other ?<br>
</p>
<p>Thanks.<br>
